Not sure how to proceed on this one.. currently tackling Knoppix 7.5 Linux Magazine Edition o/s. Trying to get output from older Acer sub notebook laptop using a 3rd party (china device) USB to HDMI converter - model FY1327 to behave correctly. I have installed libdlo-0.1.2 as per download. Tested okay on completion, However still no proper output via Knoppix.

Use of aRandR shows it supports only local laptop monitor 4.5" x 7.75" called LVDS1 and VGA1 which is an external 19" Acer VGA panel monitor. I am not able to drive a 3rd monitor [TV] via HDMI using the USB to HDMI accessory when plugged into laptop.

I believe I need to install xRandR, to control extra monitors .. How do I do this.

Thanks.
